mezzelune al formaggio (cheese-filled mezzeluna pasta)
Explanation: I think in the UK the Italian name would be given and the English translation added in brackets or a smaller font - depends a bit on the make/shop, etc.

and they aren't crescents, they're half moons
Mezzaluna pasta is a type of filled pasta which is made in a half moon shape, as its name implies: “mezzaluna” means “half moon” in Italian. This basic pasta shape is quite common; most markets probably carry mezzaluna pasta, and it is also possible to find it in restaurants. A wide variety of fillings and sauces may be used with mezzaluna pasta, ranging from vegan versions to rich, creamy meat and cheese incarnations.
